Georgia improved to 9-0 on the season and 6-0 in the SEC on Saturday with a hard fought victory over visiting South Carolina. It’s the first time the Bulldogs have started 9-0 since 1982.

Georgia held on for the 24-10 win after it led just 14-7 at halftime in a season where the Bulldogs have had several lopsided victories.

Kirby Smart discussed the game with reporters after the win as the Bulldogs prepare to visit Auburn next week.
